Jump Menu Issue

[JCrowe]

Hi,
I am trying to get the FrontPage 2003 Behaviors to build
my jump menu. After walking thru the procedure several
times I have given up and asking for help.

Heres the situation:
Using MS FrontPage2003 and a Win2k Server running IIS 5.1

I complete the jump menu and the first menu slection
always works..i.e.

http://www.domainname.com:88/industry/automotive/automotiv
e.asp

However if I "jump" from that page to another in the sam
site I get the following results:

http://www.domainname.com:88/industry/automotive/industry/
clothing/clothing.asp

as you can see it does not revert back to the root it
stays in the subroot folder.

I have tried using the "wizard"
(../diretory/subdirectory) and I have hard coded each
page URL into the HTML with the same results.

Thanks for the help,
JCrowe

You need to use Absolute URLs.

Thomas,
I did use absolute references in one of my attempts to
get it to work. Based on your answer I have to assume
that the jump menu does work...I just need to re-look
what I am doing.

Thanks,

The problem with the Jump Menu is that it is controlled by JavaScript and FP rarely updates relative
link when contained within a script, as you move between folders.
